And he his chosin chyld of ysraell
Benynglie hes taik in to his grace
And of his mercy hes remembrit weill
To woyid all vengeance frome his face 65
And humill pepill sail occupy his place
And peax salbe seisit in his stall
And rewth sail his richt so Imbrace
To sett his mercy aboif his warkis all

To our faderis that we haif1 had befoir
To abrahame And to his syid arricht
That his mercy sail lest for evirmoir
ffor withowt it this warld had bene forloir
To the quhilk to mak men to attene 2 75
He hes maid mercy mankynd to restoir
Off all his werkis to be soverene
